Story: Mary was the daughter of a farmer. She was a bright girl and wanted

            to raise the economic status of her family. She studied agricultural science

            and returned to her village. She took a small plot of her farm and used mod-

            ern  seeds  and  methods  of  cultivation  to  demonstrate  the  efficacy  of  her


            knowledge. The excellent results converted her parents into believing in her

            methods which were used on their entire farm next year. Their farm income

            trebled and they were very happy. Soon the entire village adopted the mod-

            ern methods of farming and prospered.
